Hi there.
I'm doing some AS2 development (FlashLite 2.1) for the Touch HD, and I'm getting some unexpected results from the _root.draggable=System.capabilities.hasStylus;
Its showing "false" when quite obviously the OS is stylus capable.
Anyone got any ideas as an alternative, I don't really want to add cursor style onscreen keys - but at the moment this is looking like the only option. Perhaps someone else has developed a work around for this limitation - reason being I'd like to make a draggable flash object in the app basically.
My only guess is that TouchFlo3D somehow prevents the normal drag function being available for applications like flashlite?

First time posting, so let me thank everyone on this forum first. You guys do an amazing job of helping the world hack these devices.
I'm looking for a way to integrate the MS2 and HTC cube built in to my CDMA Touch. I love the TouchFlo functionality and I even like the Cube.
I'm looking for suggestions as to the best approach for combining these two tools. My initial thought was for the MS2 contacts tab to launch the contacts side of the Cube. I could probably teach myself how to properly edit the XMLs to achieve this. However, this would eliminate the 16-contact MS2 tab in favor of a 9-contact HTC page.
I then considered that both the HTC and SPB apps are really 2d. The Cube and MS2 allow for side to side motion, but the up/down gestures aren't consistent. I would like to try and make it so that sweeping up always brings up the cube (it already does that), and sweeping down always launches MS2 (I know about the MS2 gesture, but I want to launch a tab, not the three-tab selection).
My current thinking is to try and recreate the HTC animations for flipping tabs in MS2. I would like to avoid having to uninstall the HTC Cube only to replace it with FTouch or something. Also, this doesn't solve my issue with the downward sweep launching an actual MS2 tab, not the chooser.
Any suggestions?
Don't be shy, join in.
*bump*
I'm looking for an easy way to make the background from S2U, MS2, and the HTC Cube to match. I'd like the illusion of a single interface, right down to the dialpad, contacts (I know about PCM) and keyboard (also PCM).
I know separate skins for these bad boys exist, but there isn't a single one that applies the same visual style to all these components.
Any artists out there?
Is there a hack to replace native WinCE behavior on scrolling down with an iPhone like one?
Yes. I am aware there are lots of frontend applications like iContact etc. enabling iPhone look and feel. It is not what I really want. All the applications is a patchwork. It is heavy on resources, slow and basically disintegrated. Many applications are in development and lack of vital functions.
I am happy with the application set I currently have. It is stable, familiar and a-finger-operated. The only thing I miss is scrolling down like iPhone provides. One has to get stylus to scroll a scroll bar down/up.
Is there an option to replace the MS OS native library responsible for scrolling by a hacked one, which tracks the sliding finger behavior? (I am now with WM5)
if you use any ROM with TouchFlow, you'll propably forget about the scroll bars in most of the applications...
there is another programs, like FTouchFlo, which replicate the behavior of TouchFlow, with some add ons of course... you might want to check as well...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338143
another thing you can do to get rid of the scroll bar (well most of it) is to change it's size to 1 pixel in width... so if you find your self in a situation where you really need the scoll bar, you just get the styus out and drag it on the edge of your screen....
I hope this will help....

I've tested FTouchSL2.5. It works with limited success. For example it doesn't support MT Software TodayAgenda. Also the application side launch works bad. The function seems to be heavy on computation power and competes with today or requires a hard push and doesn't work with gentle gestures.
Is there aby option to post-update ROM with TouchFlow? How reliable the TouchFlow is?

Hi
Did you include some of those programmes to the exclusion list? Cos' some application comes with slide function on its own which may not work well with FTouchSL activated for it.
Also, you can configure the delay time for a gesture to work. If you like to use just a 'gentle' touch / slide to generate a quick response, try to set the delay to smaller value, e.g. 200 ms. etc.
I've no problem using FTouchSL and it's a must have for my phone.

smaller delay value did help to be more responsive. down-up slide launch works better now. all others launches don't. It seems the today interfere with the FTtouchSL. It is pity to say, but I didn't managed to exclude it. I couldn't find it as a program.
you can always use Spb PocketPlus 4, which has "smart scrolling" with a number of other features you might like. There is a fee for it though, but like I always say, if theres a will theres a way
You CAN exclude the desktop, you have to add it as a "window exception". Just manually type in either "Start" or "Desktop", I forgot which one

this one was a good move. down-up gesture works like a charm now. (do not forget to enable gestures while except window) I am sure now, the program competed with desktop for resources to process the touchscreen control.
All other gesture movements don't work. It seems TodayAgenda still compete with FTouch

what did you have for the Enable FtouchSL timeout:
how about the Gestures timeout:
i excluded the desktop. Click on Exceptions then add window title. in the window title, typed in desktop
is that right?
HTC home is an amazing creation especially the vers found in aserg rom for the herald where it incorporates colors on the buttons
I installed touch commander and the ability to slide the tabs instead of pressing and the slide action was quite spectacular
Unfortunately due to the extremely slowdown of my device i removed it
Hopefully somebody knows of something similar, and no ultimate launcher cube slide is different than this, personally i think this is way smoother and fits the htc device quite well instead of the ultimate launcher

Have you tried the Touch Commander beta version yet? It's a little buggy but looks like it's going to kick some #@&. See if you can find a pick for the one you speak about... I would like to see and maybe replicate for TC.
Hi all
I am wondering if it is possible to edit TouchFlo 3D. I dont mean just changing colours and graphics, I mean change its contents. I would like to be able to edit the items that appear on it and add my own shortcuts to programs. Is this possible ?
Many thanks
That's really the whole point of the programs tab. You can add or remove existing tabs within the settings too.
I seriously doubt custom app tabs would be possible as this would require TF3D to render the app within itself.
Would be cool though if you could install custom tabs or build your own though... Not something I've looked into, anyone know if this is possible?
Tasks
Hi everyone,
Touch HD = my 1st WinMo Device. Coming from an N95 slightly dissapointed with camera and lack of group SMS but love everything else.
Is there a way to display tasks on the today screen in Touch Flo 3d?

Group SMS, you can almost certainly install a program for this! I've never used one myself but just a google search turns up a few...
First few results from google:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-group-sms.html
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/SMS/Group-SMS-56808.shtml
http://group-sms.en.softonic.com/windowsmobile
As I said never used it, not tried any of these but there will most certainly be people on this forum who can advise you better.
You might want to check out SecondToday for today screen tasks, they are not displayed directly on the TF3D today screen but are just 1 button away.
Is it possible adding a new option item (Vibrating the device when tapping the tabs of TouchFlo, Youtube and Opera) to this current setting page like RED marking option. I think this future is added on Touch HD with a new version of TouchFlo Settings. On my Touch Diamond I have Version 3.0.
Try TouchResponse from here. Although it won't specifically be for that, it'll work all around your diamond and you can adjust the length of the vibration.
Wow thats pretty tight.
This Touch HD TF3D is soooooooo much better than the other devices, stocks etc;
I wish they would just make it all the same for every TF3D user.
@shun4rm323;
Thanks for your suggestion. Also I used TouchResponse. But it vibrate at all touch. It is Battery life time monster . May be not. I dont have test it so fast. But it give me so a feeling.. But that is a nice useful application. With this new option vibration occur only on specific applications like TouchFlo, Youtube and Opera.
xboxhaxorz;
I see you.. I think in a near time we will see customized or official TouchFl3D for all touch based HTC devices with new versions. I like stock tab and customize tab option in Settings
I think nobody have an idea like Me
Is this a big request
That specific tab/opera vibrating works on some roms with the new TF3D2 from Xboxmod (the first version V1C seemed to have it, but the V1D does not implement it, or at least I have not been able to do it again)
